Why Zelula Zero?
• Greenhouse’s
installations need a lot
of energy to operate,
because
microclimates are
generated artificially
• Our solution: to supply
electrical power to the
installation with
renewable energy,
looking for the best
ones per each area.hydroponic crops testing laboratories

History of the project
PAST
We have been
working on the
project during
10 years and
we’re
progressing
with the
advance of
technology.
PRESENT
In our laboratory,
we optimize the
performance of
electrical and
electronic
equipment that
conform zelula
zero.
FUTURE
Objective 2014-
2015
To create zelula
zero
greenhouse
modules with
different
surfaces.
10. Self-sufficient greenhouses
PRESENT: LABORATORY
• In this
experimental
laboratory, we
can see how the
plants grow with
different type of
light and
artificially
generated under
different
climates.
• Ratify the
energy
consumption of
all electrical
equipment
installed in the
laboratory.
11. Self-sufficient greenhouses
To achieve Zelula Zero
• With the mix of
renewables energies we
will be able to make the
greenhouse sel-suficient.
• Building modules of
different sizes and
technificate self-
sufficient greenhouses .

Solar energy
We use photovoltaic
panels with
translucent surface.
Due to the level of
opacity they produce
more or less energy.
To change a
conventional
greenhouse roof for
photovoltaic ones,
reduces temperature
inside the Greenhouse
and produces energy.
Translucent solar panels
Photovoltaic systems
turn sun's radiant
energy into electrical
power.

Wind energy
• Wind power
converts wind
movement into
electricity.
• With the wind map
of the
greenhouse´s
location, we can
know whether
wind power is able
to cover the
electricity needs or
not.

Geothermal energy
• Geothermal
energy uses the
ability of the land
to remain at a
constant
temperature
throughout the
year.
• Geothermal supply
environmental
heating without
any combustion.

Biomass energy
• Biomass is any
organic material
used as a source
of energy
• Organic rests of
the crops are
burned in a
biomass boiler to
generate energy.
